and My-Father-Knows

Morphological NotesConjunction וַ ("and") prefixed to a masculine singular proper noun (Np). The name is a compound of אֲבִי ("my father") and a form derived from ידע ("to know").
Rendering RationaleThe name combines אֲבִי ("my father") from אב with a form of ידע ("to know"), yielding the sense "My Father Knows" or "Father of Knowledge." The prefixed וַ marks the conjunction "and," and as a masculine singular proper noun (Np), the rendering reflects a single male individual.
